Bench Press

Lie on a flat bench with your eyes under the bar. Grip the barbell slightly wider than shoulder width and unrack it. Lower the bar to your mid-chest with control, pause briefly, then press back up to full lockout. Keep your feet planted, your back slightly arched, and your shoulder blades squeezed together throughout.
